Modeling affective dynamics: OscillationsWilfried CoolsKU Leuven | |
| Abstract: | The joint evolution of both valence and arousal is studied to further understand the dynamic properties of the core affect system. Such an evolution is hypothesized to display oscillations due to the emotion system’s self regulation. In order to model these oscillations while controlling for external influences, a state space approach is used. This approach allows for analyzing data in continuous time using stochastic differential equations, and naturally deals with irregularly sampled data as obtained from experience sampling studies. After having introduced the approach, the model and the data, some preliminary findings of our analyses will be discussed. |
